The aesthenosphere is kept deformable largely through heat generated by radioactive decay
They are both caused by movement of tectonic plates.
It is when you design an inside of a house. Interior design is a multi-faceted profession in which creative and technical solutions are applied within a structure to achieve a built interior environment.
Some professions related to architecture are: civil engineer, interior designer, landscape architect, cadd operator, renderer, model maker, field architect, etc.
earthquakes tend to happer near the boundaries of the plates, places like Japan and some parts of Califfornia are on fault lines or close to plates, which move, when that happens- you get bearthquakes- although I'm not entirely sure.
Architects are adept at structural problem-solving and creative design for both exterior and interior building design. Interior architecture focuses on the functionality of a space. This form of architecture is often confused with interior design, which focuses more on aesthetics.
As elements decay within the Earth's interior, they release energy. This energy creates movement within the magma (along with the rotation of the Earth and heat) and this movement causes the plates of the Earth to move, hence the geography of the planet is different to thousands and millions of years ago.
No, trace elements are not necessarily radioactive. A link to a list of elements that have no natural radioactive isotopes is at a related question, below.
Concentrations of radioactive elements generate excess heat. A lot of the heat in the Earth's interior is related to radioactive isotopes of aluminum, and aluminum is less dense than the inner core, which is iron and nickel.
how are volcanoes and the process of plate tectonics related
I believe it's related to the heat from Earth's interior, which in turn is mainly due to radioactive decay.
This is hard to answer.All elements have radioactive isotopes.Some elements have no known stable isotopes.It might be more instructive to put the periodic table aside and look at a table of nuclides instead. There's a link to one in the Related Links section.
Unstable elements are radioactive elements that spontaneously decay into other elements. Some are: Radon Uranium Plutonium See the related link for an article giving greater detail on isotope stability.
Radioactive elements include all elements whose nuclei either:contain protons more than 83 proton, orcontain neutron to proton ratio out of the stability ratio.refer to related question below.
A native from Italy, Enrica Ferni - for demonstrating the existence of radioactive elements produced for neutron irradiation. Enrico Fermi Italy "for his demonstrations of the existence of new radioactive elements produced by neutron irradiation, and for his related discovery of nuclear reactions brought about by slow neutrons"
A version of convection currents, occurring in the mantle, is thought to be the force behind plate tectonics.
because it is a type of techtonic plates
Radioactive wastes are chemical products studied also by chemists.
